Analytical Measurement Systems Made in Germany

The bentekk GmbH develops, produces and sells portable measuring devices designed to quickly and accurately measure the presence of benzene and other hazardous substances in the atmosphere. The first product X-PID is a handheld device to detect extremely low concentrations of volatile organic compounds that were previously as single compounds only detectable in a laboratory environment. The fast measuring device is predominantly used for clearance measurements during maintenancework and indicates if thresholds are being exceeded. Its primary area of application is monitoring maximum permissible concentrations of benzene in the workplace in the oil, gas and chemical industry. The measurement systems make use of an Industrial Internet of Things approach to automate processes and to deliver a rich user experience. Founded in 2014 and based in the south of Hamburg, bentekk aims to increase the safety at work.

Team
